AI Summary

  • Removes the existing exemption that excluded "publicly available" sensitive personal information from the protections of the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)
  • Under current law, sensitive personal information that is publicly available is not subject to CCPA privacy protections; this bill eliminates that carve-out
  • Sensitive personal information includes social security numbers, financial account details, precise geolocation, racial/ethnic origin, citizenship status, religious beliefs, genetic data, neural data, biometric information, and health/sexual orientation data
  • The bill declares that its provisions further the purposes and intent of the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020
  • The original version addressing emergency backup power requirements for residential care facilities for the elderly was entirely replaced with this consumer privacy content
